With blockchain split or not, I am sure the new block structure allowing for more transactions will cause fees to drop, which would be great news, because they have been too high for too long imo.
But in case that happens, you think it will last for long? Will we be able to enjoy small fees like we used to in the good old days for a long period of time?
I think that the transaction fees has already dropped from last week.Now itself,we could send bitcoins with low transaction fee as it was before and even the confirmation time is also very fast.That has been the greatest issue of bitcoins over the past three months and now it has been almost solved.
